Meh I'll just go into Belfast
Be sure to wear a burka, so you won't arouse any suspicion.
I have the red hair, green eyes and temper....I'll blend right in
They'd probably call you "Florence of Arabia."
I wonder if I can get a RPG conceal carry?
Now you're on "The List" for sure.
God help 'em if the rest of the Brits are as lost as Tommy Tainant. Even with an expensive GPS, they'd be stumbling around in the woods for days.
...and never acknowledge that their GPS works from American satelites.
It's comforting to know that the UK, to protect their citizens, is scanning for radiation and it could detect such from simply paint on an item like a compass.... WOW!
The question: IS the USA doing the same? How could this item make it from JGalt's post office, through the USPS distribution center for his state, to the US international/Customs center, and then on to the UK without any detection of the radiation????????????
we had radon gas in our home in Massachusetts and had to remediate it before they allowed the sale to go through....Hopefully, this has not landed you on a no fly list! Though, I think they can tell already that you were simply a regular ole Joe, just trying to sell some old military stuff on Ebay....
BE GLAD you are not handling that radio active thing anymore and it has been taken off the market!
Mildly radioactive material like that which as on the compass isn't "deadly." Most every US military compass you can find has a similar substance in it, although this one wasn't marked. There are also hundreds of millions of vintage wristwatches out there with radium dials, and what's called "uranium glass", which is mildly radioactive. Some people even use those old Cold War era Civil Defense radiation detectors to find such items at flea markets.
You're in more danger of getting cancer from Radon gas, which is common in many homes.
no fly list
we have radon gas in this one too, but it is 1/10th of 1% lower than the law that requires remediation....
yeah, I was thinking that too.... incoming customs would be checking...It's comforting to know that the UK, to protect their citizens, is scanning for radiation and it could detect such from simply paint on an item like a compass.... WOW!

Not sure, but I would guess that everything that comes in through US Customs goes through a scanner, and packages outgoing are checked by the destination's Customs.

but what if it was already in country, and someone was shipping it around?

I bought something from a JGalt on ebay once. I forget what it was, though.

An interesting note though: lantern and lamp mantles used on Coleman lanterns and Aladdin kerosene lamps, are treated with radioactive Thorium, which is what makes them glow when they get hot. Those are shipped back and forth between the UK and the US regularly. All of the Aladdin lamp mantles I buy were manufactured overseas, and have been treated with Thorium.
I don't normally ship vintage Coleman lanterns internationally because of their high value. You can insure international shipments but once it leaves the mainland US, you're on your own. Postal theft and loss is an everyday occurrence in many foreign postal systems.

Computer memory sticks? An electronic personal reminder? A copy of "Atlas Shrugged"?
No, it wasn't me. I'm not going by that name.

Remember the kid who tried to build a breeder reactor or something from Coleman Lantern mantles? Ended up having to declare his home a cleanup site.
Smart kid.

As far as the list, everybody's on a list some place anyway. Maybe a couple of lists even. Or a few, maybe.
